This image displays the Altar of Saint Francis, also known as the "Altar of the Ecstasy of Saint Francis," located within the Church of Santa Maria della Concezione dei Cappuccini (Capuchin Crypt Church) at Via Vittorio Veneto, 27, in Rome, Italy. The scene presents a vertical composition of a Baroque altar ensemble. Centrally positioned is a large, oval oil painting within an elaborate gilded frame. The painting, *The Ecstasy of Saint Francis* by Andrea Sacchi, depicts Saint Francis of Assisi in a brown habit, positioned in the lower left, looking upwards in rapture. Above him, a celestial assembly of putti and winged angels on clouds is visible, with one prominent angel in the upper center playing a violin. The gilded frame above the painting bears an inscription beginning "EX. VII. ALTARI...". Flanking the painting are two monumental, white marble sculptures of winged angels. These angels appear to recline, supporting or framing the central artwork. The left angel's upper torso and one arm are partially visible, extending towards the painting's frame. The right angel reclines with its head tilted downwards, its wings spread. Below the artwork and sculptures, a marble altar is present. Its table is draped with a white cloth featuring a lace-edged trim. On the altar surface, six unlit white candles are held in brass candlesticks, arranged in two sets of three. A brass crucifix stands centrally between these sets. The altar's front is constructed from variegated marble in red, grey, and white tones, incorporating a central decorative panel with a relief of foliate design, partially obscured by green foliage. The entire altar ensemble is set within a recessed architectural niche. This niche is framed by vertical marble pilasters with gilded accents. The side walls behind the sculptures are paneled with dark, patterned marble. The upper section of the niche features ornate gilded molding and a vaulted ceiling element with a central circular gilded motif, indicative of a richly decorated sacred space. in Rome, Italy
